Mid-zone Organizer

Mid-zone behavior is normal under stress. Most people move to mid-zone behavior once they feel they have exhausted positive efforts and they begin to react to the stress. Healthy mid-zone behavior is demonstrated by a score that falls at least 6 points below the positive score and within the light shaded area or below.

A high score in this section indicates a leaning toward negativity...a sort of gray zone where you could easily go either way (positive or negative) depending on the situation or circumstances.

Mid-zone Organizers are cautious, skeptical and apprehensive. They want the rightness of an action or idea proven to them before they are willing to act on it. They may be so hung up on perfectionism that they find themselves stuck in inaction because they can’t be certain of a perfect result or outcome. They tend to be too focused on minute details, which can slow their progress and cause them (and others) a great deal of stress and distress. Their relationships with others can suffer because of their need to be right or perfect, which they insist on trying to develop in those around them as well. This makes them appear critical, aloof and judgmental. They see interactions as neutral at best. They are rather cautious and guarded in relationships. They control by manipulation, which can range from mild to coercive.
